UPDATED: More Coachella Rumors/Urb Magazine Article

by Dylan on November 24, 2003

We continue to get reports that Radiohead is playing this year’s Coachella festival in Indio, California. The latest report states that this month’s issue of Urb magazine confirms this, as well as an appearance by the reunited Pixies (named as a big Radiohead influence). While we’re still searching for the magazine to try and confirm this, we can tell you that Radiohead is on the cover, and that you can read part of the cover story online in the “guts” section.
Please note that this is all still one big fat unconfirmed rumor (even if it is a cool one), and should be treated thusly. Stay tuned, we’ll keep you posted as always.
UPDATE: Looks like NME’s getting in on the act (though for all we know, they got the rumor from us!).
UPDATE AGAIN: Page 74 of URB states that Thom is “happy to be on the [Coachella] bill, but is visibly affected when informed of the Pixies reunion plans to play before them.” Thom then goes on to say, “No! That’s just not right! The Pixies opening for us is like the Beatles opening for us. I won’t allow it. There’s no way we can follow the Pixies!”
Still, nothing has been officially announced so stay tuned…
